Pedro really understands what he’s talking about in terms of the street art scene/conveys it with a lot of enthusiasm and shows a variety of street art styles throughout the city. He’s also able to tell a lot about the city in general, so if it’s your first time in Lisbon and you like this type of art: don’t skip the tour!”

“Pedro was a great guide who clearly has a passion for street art. We were taken to parts of Lisbon that we never would have gotten to see outside of the tour, and saw so much fantastic street art. Also, we were picked up straight from our Air b&b which was super helpful, and asked where we would like to be dropped off so we got a lift to the next sight we planned on visiting :) THANK YOU!”
